I've just set up my discussion board (Living in Laos), but despite having enabled the IMG and video options 3 times, I still only get 'Insert URL' when I want to post a picture. I can do it by copying and pasting in the BB code but expected to be able to do it from the menu.

It's the same here as I'm writing this post. Is it something to do with my browser (Firefox)?

Am I doing something wrong? How can I enable these options so they show up in the menu tab?

What you're describing sounds like how the feature should function. Selecting the Image or Flash BBCode button will prompt you to enter a URL, and upon entering the URL and submitting the form it should insert the code automatically for you into the post text-field. If this isn't happening, can you please describe where the process goes sour?

Thanks.

Thanks Ryan,

My confusion was due to being asked for a URL when I wanted to paste in an image location from my Flickr album which, as I understand it is not a URL but a jpg file. Maybe it is a URL? It looks like this:

http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5094/5577992747_dbc80d8152.jpg

However, pasting in that jpg file worked, so that's OK I guess.

Thanks,

Philip
